    Paint will not be warrantied by the US distributor.

    Pretty typical Italian paint tho-not real durable-

    My bike shop here is a Colnago dealer and I have seen quite a few with paint problem that were sent
    back to Belgium (where they're painted for the Dutch market) for a repaint job.

    Indeed. I also saw some Pinarello paint problems, but fewer that Colnago.

    Are there any waxes or other treatments that might alleviate some of the paint problems and/or
    increase durability?

    My opinion of Colnago paint is mixed. As an ex-dealer-I routinely saw drips, sags,orange-peel,
    overspray, poorly masked joints etc,,,,,but it was attractive. It is overly thick, rather tough
    (which is good), and fades quickly. Overall-not good.
